PARENT PROGRAMS COORDINATOR INTRODUCTION
|
|
Hello, my name is Fernanda Reyes and I am the Parent Programs Coordinator at UNT. I am a bilingual (!hablo Español!), first-generation college graduate and a Fort Worth, TX native. I recently graduated from Southern Methodist University ('21) with my Master in Higher Education and I have a passion for education, families, and helping others reach their full potential.
I started my role on May 26 and hit the ground running with hosting in-person parent orientations ever since. With classes starting soon, I am super excited to stay connected with you and host you and your family at upcoming events happening on campus.
I am here to serve you and your Eagle, so if you have any questions, please email me at parents@unt.edu.

Now that your student has moved into their residence hall, now is an excellent time to ensure your student has a first aid kit for their residence hall or apartment. First aid kits should have a thermometer, bandages, antibacterial ointment, pain reliever, and fever reducer. If your student suffers from allergies or other health conditions, make sure to include medications for those as well. Click here to learn more about purchasing a kit.
